Article 3 Certification of CO2 savings

United Kingdom

The F1Secretary of State shall ensure that CO₂ savings achieved from the use of the innovative technology have been determined using the methodology set out in the Annex.

Where a manufacturer applies for the certification of the CO₂ savings from the use of the technology in more than one 12 Volt efficient alternator in relation to one vehicle version, the F2Secretary of State shall determine which of the 12 Volt efficient alternators tested delivers the lowest CO₂ savings. That value shall be used for the purposes of paragraph 3.

The F3Secretary of State shall record the certified CO₂ savings determined in accordance with paragraph 1 or 2 and the eco-innovation code referred to in Article 4(1) in the relevant type-approval documentation.

The F4Secretary of State shall record all the elements considered for the certification in a test report and keep that together with the verification report referred to in Article 2(2) F5....

The F6Secretary of State shall only certify CO₂ savings, if F7Secretary of State finds that the technology used in the 12 Volt efficient alternator or alternators comply with the conditions set out in Article 1, and if the CO₂ savings achieved are 0,5 g CO₂/km or higher as specified in Article 9(1)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 725/2011 in the case of passenger cars or of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 427/2014 in the case of light commercial vehicles.
